Wilson isn't going to be THAAT expensive because of the injury. I think he would be an immediate upgrade over almost everyone in our BP even if he is 85% of what he used to be. If he comes back at 100%, he would be a huge steal. He'd kill it in Citi. I'd say take the chance.

He also brings revenue to the team as he is just so popular and recognizable. The merchandizing alone could probably pay his contract. I say this is a move you HAVE to make. He can contribute for a few years still

This would be a great signing. The FO needs to bring at least one guy in who will attract the casual fans. Brian Wilson and his type-A personality would do that. And if he's healthy, he will really help the bullpen.

This is the kind of move I wanted Sandy to look into. I woulda loved if he looked in Ryan Madson too. Joe Nathan bounced back fine, I can't see why Wilson can't do the same.
